National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme - NDORS
National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme - NDORS
The Association of Chief Police Officers, ACPO, favour education
over punishment for suitable offences, with the need for a mixture
of statutory and non statutory retraining schemes.
The Police have been operating the National
Driver Offender Retraining Scheme (NDORS) as a pre
Criminal Justice disposal option for minor moving Road Traffic
Offences since 1991. This was developed from the recommendations in
the Road Traffic Law Review of 1988 and evidence would support that
these courses are popular with the public.
The driver/rider pays for the cost of the course in lieu of the
penalty that is in place for the offence and an incentive is that
no penalty is recorded against them on successful completion of a
course.
A driver can only access a course once in 3 years; further offences
of a similar nature will be dealt with via the Criminal Justice
system. To enforce this regime ACPO maintains a national register
of driver data of those attending these courses.
There are currently three courses on offer:
- National Speed Awareness
- National Driver Improvement (National Driver Alertness in some areas)
- National RIDE (for motorcyclists)
